Kenya Fortifies Parliament Two Years After Deadly Protest Breach

Kenyan police locked down parliament with roadblocks and razor wire on June 25, 2026, as demonstrators marked two years since a 2024 breach that killed dozens. The security crackdown reveals the government's anxiety about Gen-Z protesters who coordinated mass demonstrations against tax increases using social media. Earlier, authorities announced a 2,000-victim compensation payout—but without holding any officers criminally accountable.
